Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
I can't be certain that Nautilus is the culprit here but I noticed in Lucid on 03/10/2010 that my zsynced "lucid-
Today I decided to zsync the new image and it showed up oversize again, the daily build web page said 676MB but it shows up in Nautilus as 708.3MB. So this time I booted into Jaunty (same machine multi-booted) and the same image was seen in Jaunty as being the correct size.
Now, I had one more potential "cause" to rule out. My Downloads and Documents folders are shared by multiple distros via symlink. So to rule out the symlinking being a part of the problem I first copied the image to the Desktop and it still showed up too large, so just to be sure I downloaded a whole new iso to the Desktop and still the same.
The actual image size is 675.5MB according to either Jaunty or Hardy, but in Lucid it shows up as 708.3MB.
One reason I doubt Nautilus being the sole culprit is that the image shows up too large in Brasero also, but I'm stumped.

I'll be glad to provide any additional info requested.
I just double checked this running the 03/12/2010 Live CD and it also reads the isos as being oversize so it's not just a fluke with my installed Lucid.
